Sunday 9/1 10am
Why are boys so incompetent? I mean seriously, the car ride to the train station was a disaster. Ron threw a temper tantrum about being the same car as me on the way to there. he gave some ridiculous reason for why he had to be in the other car, Mrs. Weasley yelled at him for a while eventually getting her way, then he pouted the whole way there making him even more miserable to be around. It was quite exasperating. Once we got there Harry came over to talk to me. I had been expecting it all morning, because, as we all know, if Ron can't do something himself he makes Harry do it for him.
I looked up as I heard someone coming over to where me and Ginny were standing on the platform. It was Harry, expecting that he want to talk to Ginny until I saw the look on his face.
"Hermione I need to talk to you," he said with a weird look on his face.
"About Ron?" I questioned, knowing the answer was yes, simply by the look on his face.
"Yeah."
"What does he want you to talk to me about?"
"Well he said that when he talked to you yesterday, you just stared at him like he was crazy."
"Well I kinda did, I was just so shocked. After all this time I've been waiting for him to ask me out, he finally does it after I have lost interest in being more than his friend. I didn't know what to say."
"Well that makes sense. I've been trying to get him to do it for years now, but he could never get up the courage, especially at school."
"Well do you need to know anything else?" I asked exasperated that all the boys I know can't do anything for themselves.
"No, I don't need anything else. Your answer is kinda what I figured you'd say anyway. I just wanted to be sure." Then he turned and walked away.
Ok So I understand him not wanting to construe my words, but seriously it was a pointless conversation. Hence, I rest my case on boys and their incompetence. But prefect duties call, so I will write more later.
Same day 3:30pm
I just finished my prefect duties, and am sitting in the prefects car because Ron is still not talking to me and either is Harry out of loyalty to Ron. Which I expected, but let's move on. This is why I didn't want to date Ron in the first place. He's as emotional as any girl I've ever met, and I knew as soon as something bad happened he would cease to speak to me. I mean after all it's happened before. Luckily for me, I haven't run into Malfoy outside of the prefect meeting when we first got on the train. But he still managed to slide in a comment about mudbloods that wasn't loud enough to get him called out for it, but loud enough for me to hear. I don't ever want to hear the word mudblood again in my life. I just might hex him if he calls me that again. All I'll really get is detention. Listen to me. Look what those boys have done to me! I'm turning into a heathen. Ugh, but I'd probably end up getting it with him. I cannot stand him, but I'm forced to live with him. It really doesn't make sense. I also don't understand why he is a Prefect. He doesn't take his job seriously, he just uses his power to pick on people. How typical Slytherin. But that's not really the point, the point is boys are worthless.
Then there's Ginny. She has gotten herself so deeply buried in Harry that I can't even really get through to her anymore. That's one thing that will never happen to me.I will never get so lost in a boy that I lose track of reality. But she has. Well I've always thought her a little, well you know. I have to go, the train is starting to slow, we're almost to school.
Same Day 10pm
I can't believe that boy! And that's exactly what he is, a stupid disgusting ferret boy! OK so here's what happened. We were doing first rounds making sure everyone was where they need to, not wandering around "lost." I rounded the corner near the great hall, and there he was leaning against the wall canoodling with some stupid bimbo Slytherin...
"What do you think you're doing Malfoy?" I asked him as I walked into the great hall.
"What I'm doing is no business of yours Granger, so turn around and walk back the way you came," he spat.
"What this Bimbo does for you I can't begin to guess," that got a scandalized sound from the girl, "Bur what your doing is neglecting your work, and now I have proof of it."
"What proof do you have? It's once again my word against yours," Malfoy said as he stepped towards me.
The girl was walking away, looking pissed that Malfoy was defending her.
"Oh look, your Bimbo's gone. Now you can get back to work."
"What have I told you about talking to me like that? You have no right to order me about, and talk to me like I'm beneath you, because as we all know a mudblood like you is beneath ME!"
And that's when the hand came again, but this time I was ready for it. I grabbed his wrist and hit him in a stomach. As he doubled over I let go of his wrist and spat "Don't ever do that again. Get back to work."
I spun around and stomped back back to my room.
I still am amazed that he tried to hit me AGAIN! Was he beat as a child or something? Not I doubt that, his skin is to perfect. No... I did not just write that. What is wrong with me? First I'm staring at his butt, now I'm talking about his perfect skin.
I have to give up this train of thought. Classes start tomorrow. Not looking forward to what I know will be double potions with Slytherin. Well I better go to bed. I have to be at breakfast early to get my schedule.
